GM CSF Human, Sf9

Granulocyte Macrophage-Colony Stimulating Factor Human Recombinant, Sf9

GM-CSF Human Recombinant produced in insect cells is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 127 amino acids (18-144) and having a molecular mass of 14.6kDa.
GM-CSF is fused to a C-terminal His -tag (6x His) and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Accession

P04141

Amino acid sequence

The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ala-Pro-Ala-Arg-Ser.

Biological Activity

The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependant stimulation of the proliferation of human TF-1 cells (human erythroleukemic indicator cell line) is 0.1 ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 10MIU/mg.

Formulation

The protein was lyophilized with PBS.

Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Protein content

Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods:
1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.963 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequence (IntelliGenetics).
2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a standard solution of GMCSF as a Reference Standard.

Purity

Greater than 98.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Source

Insect Cells.

Stability

Lyophilized Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18oC. Upon reconstitution GMCSF should be stored at 4oC between 2-7 days and for future use below -18oC.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Synonyms

CSF-2, MGI-1GM, GMCSF, Pluripoietin-alpha, Molgramostin, Sargramostim.
